Engine Number VNX1M
Anyone know what engine this prefix relates too, it`s not listed on the Scooterhelp. com website. My best guess is it`s some sort of a PX 125 engine, it`s got an electric start motor fitted but that`s as far as i got.
Any ideas....???

Re: Not switching off when hot
Points go to ...Donnie. Took scoot to the Solent Cougars Weekender and scoot switched off as normal. Fitting a B8 plug did the trick, cheers mate...

Re: Not switching off when hot
Toddy, same cylinder head bought from the same place I got the kit from. Also used the head gasket they supplied. In short. .no I haven't checked the squish but was assuming it should be ok.
Donnie, scoots done 500 miles since total rebuild so just about run in, you suggesting I should try a B8 ?

Not switching off when hot
Just changed the cylinder head as my old one`s spark plug thread had stripped (cheap alloy 185cc). Put it all back together, new spark plug B7ES, same as the old one. Took it for a spin, all seemed ok, pressed the kill button, engine kept running. Let it cool down, started it and it switched off ok,...

Re: What would happen if....
You might have guessed that I was trying to be a tight arse and was hoping to get away with spending some money. Have now ordered a new 185 head. Thanks for the advice chaps.

What would happen if....
...I swapped a standard 125 cylinder head for a 185 head. I've stripped the thread of the 185 and found a 125 head in the shed. Was wondering how it would affect the squish/compression etc. Not too mechanically minded about this sort of thing. Cheers.
